Does the traditional anti-virus software apply to the virtualized environment?

Malware filtering based around the environment is a line of defense for the company, in this case using Cisco's antivirus filters. However, user-safe physical devices typically encounter "blind spots" in virtual machines. However, Prime lending now uses HP's tipping point virtual Controller (Vcontroller) to monitor and detect malware in virtual machines or signs of attack traffic. This is not before. The HP tipping point virtual controller is tipping point's intrusion prevention system for VMware environments, working like the HP physical tipping point intrusion defense system software extension. Hernandez says the system is doing well in the blind spot of the client's virtual machine. However, the unexpected impact of unexpected high communication speeds on virtualization itself means transitioning to a higher-speed tipping point device. The Vcontroller intrusion prevention system has been able to identify potential problems (such as infected files), apparently because the software was edited by an employee on an infected home PC and uploaded to the share Point.hernandez says the internally stored file is trying to gather information from other files. The Vcontroller intrusion prevention system found and prevented the operation. Prime Lending also uses the tipping Point Vcontroller feature to share security event data with the RSA that it uses to prevent data loss products and RSA security and event management products envision. However, in order to find the appropriate anti-virus software defense measures that can be used for virtual machines, Prime lending plans to try out the "Deep security" products of trend technology. This product uses a VMware based VShield application programming interface to implement malware scans. But, however, if malware sneaks into the system, it has no way to automatically remove malware. This, Hernandez says, has its limitations at first. This is a new field, a new endeavor. Other companies also say that traditionally valuable, traditional host-based anti-virus software is now worthless to them because the main problem they face is web-based malware. Albert Gore, the IT operations manager at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, said our environment has many viral infections, one or two times a week and sometimes three times a week. He suspects most desktop anti-virus software, including the McAfee software used by the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. He suspects that desktop anti-virus software can completely eliminate malicious code that is accidentally propagated through employees, contractors, and actors using the Web. Gore says Facebook and YouTube are the two mostLarge source of infection. Infection means that you have to find out what's wrong and isolate it, and you have to figure out if it's stolen. Malware attacks can cause people to lose files or find files deleted. However, the Kennedy Center for the Performing arts needs to use social networks in its business. The Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts found that its viral infection was mainly due to the use of a network filtering gateway. The Websense network security gateway currently in use allows IT departments to provide extensive access to social networking sites and common Web sites, but to block specific links to dangerous malware sources. It is not just a company in the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts that is dealing with the malware incident of the opportunity network. According to a survey of 382 IT pros released this week, 78% of respondents said their organization had encountered at least one malware attack in the past 12 months, averaging a malware attack every 73 days. A survey conducted by Osterman Research, sponsored by M86 Security, showed that 97% of respondents said their organizations use some type of desktop anti-virus software. But only 60% of respondents said they used a secure Web gateway. 70% per cent of respondents said that the most reported malware attacks were infections from the network. Fake anti-virus software, such as counterfeit software ranking very high. 27% of respondents said their malware problem had increased over the past 12 months. Only 9% of respondents said they had declined. The survey found that 76% of respondents said they needed to mirror the computer after a malware attack. The average malware attack requires an IT professional to spend 27.5 hours to fix it. The survey also noted that, while repairing malware-related failures, an average of 12 employees were affected by the attack.
